Massachusetts and Rhode Island 2016 BENTHICPT (Benthic Points)
This data set contains sensitive biological resource data for macroalgae in Massachusetts. Vector points in this data set represent macroalgae vegetation beds. Species-specific abundance, seasonality, status, life history, and source information are stored in associated data tables (described below) designed to be used in conjunction with this spatial data layer. This data set is a portion of the ESI data for Massachusetts and Rhode Island. As a whole, the ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil, and include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. See also the BENTHIC (Benthic Polygons) data layer for additional benthic information.
